Czech Republic vs Norway Preview

The Czech Republic are yet to score a goal after three games in this qualifying campaign but on Friday they have a chance to rectify things against a Norway team who have managed just four goals themselves and they were all against San Marino. This has the potential to be a 0 – 0 draw but things are getting desperate so we could see a more open and attacking game, especially from the home team.

Picks?

Go for Czech defenders unless you fancy some goals in which case pick any from the home side.

England vs Scotland Preview

England are unsurprisingly odds-on favourites to beat Scotland on Friday evening but these encounters are never easy affairs with the last meaningful game won by Scotland back in 1999. Still, England should have too much quality for the Scots so we have to go for the home win and a clean sheet to boot – Gareth Southgate has a full complement of players to choose from.

Picks?

England players from all positions.

France vs Sweden Preview

France and Sweden have an identical record at the top of Group A but arguably it’s the home team who have played the tougher fixtures so far and we expect a decent performance and a win for France. The French are overwhelming favourites for the win with prices currently as low as 2/7 and we’re also confident of a clean sheet.

Picks?

France players from all positions.

Romania vs Poland Preview

Both of these teams have had relatively good starts in their qualifying campaign with Poland on 7 points and Romania on 5 in a fairly weak group. Poland have been slightly unpredictable and this is why it’s difficult to pick a winner here – we’ll be going for a draw, either 0 – 0 or 1 – 1.
